Android Open Kang Project is a real up-and-coming hit in the fickle world of Android ROMs. Though it started on the Galaxy Nexus, it's spread 20 devices from Samsung, HTC, ASUS, Motorola and more, with dozens of "kangs" branching off of the open-source builds. The updates and added features are coming fast and furious from the creators, who started off from the popular CyanogenMod base code. Picking and choosing mods and features from all over the Android community, the AOKP ROMs have made quite a name for themselves - yours truly runs AOKP on my Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy Tab 8.9. With the "Angry Unicorn" boot animation disabled, of course.

Those who prefer their Ice Cream Sandwiches with Vanilla flavor can download the stock AOSP build, compiled by notable ROM developer Birdman. The rest of the popular Android ROMs, including CyanogenMod 9, should start merging their code with the 4.0.4 build in the next week or so. There's no word from Verizon on when the CDMA version of the Galaxy Nexus or XOOM will get an update... and since both devices have lost their official blessing from Google, it might be quite a while.
